    He's planning on boxing for Pakistan and the London 2012 Olympics, I should think many people will be supporting the boxers who worked hard to get a place in the British team.

    Probably some who didn't get into the team this time, didn't throw their toys out the pram, will work harder and may well earn a place at the Olympics to fight for team GB.

    Disregard the word British, it's irrelevant. He's not a 'hero' anyway.

    Well he is a dual nationality citizen and can therefore legally box for whichever side he wants, Since the UK/England team didnt want him I dont see why they are crying if he wants to box for Pakistan at the Olympics.

    Legally Khan is a dual nationality citizen so he can fight for either country.

    Exactly, he can choose to box for who he likes, he's chosen Pakistan now, good luck to him.

    There will be sportsmen not selected for team GB in the Commonwealth games who work harder and earn a Olympic spot to represent GB.

    Come the London UK 2012 Olympics, like in every other sport, British people will be in the main supporting sportsmen representing their own country.

    Yes he can. I myself don't have a problem with him boxing for Pakistan, what I have a problem with is his 'I've proven them wrong for not selecting me', 'Beating a British boxer and England not medalling is more important to me than the medal' and 'I'd love to meet Rob McCracken and abuse him' bollocks.

    Well look at it this way if Selby won all the haters and Rob McCraken and co would say "Haroon loosing proved he wasnt worthy of a spot on the podium team", "Our selection process is based on merit not skin colour".

    So if Haroon Khan lost they would be saying how his loss to Selby vindicated thier position.
